Rhyme Time!

February 26, 2018 By Nancy Casey

Write 5-10 interesting words across the top line of the page.

Choose one of the words and make a list of all the words that rhyme with it.  Find those words by using this list of sounds that an English word can start with:

A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z  SH  CH  TH  STR  SP  ST  SK  SQ  SCR, SM  TR  BR  FL  BL  SL  CL  CR  THR  PR  PL  DR  GR  GL

 (If you look up rhyming words in a rhyming dictionary or on the internet, the process is less fun and less creative.)

Find rhyming words for at least 3 of the words you’ve written across the top of the page.  Once you have a hefty pile of words, combine them into sentences somehow.  See what comes out.  A string of sentences?  A story?

Here is a more detailed version of these instructions.

News and Events

Nancy blogs weekly for the Latah Recovery Community Center, sharing writing ideas that support self-awareness and self-esteem.


Looking for an art project that is secretly full of math? Or a math project that results in interesting art? Equilateral Triangle is an Inquiry Pack full of project ideas that will keep you thinking for a long time.


Writing classes and workshops

In-person Write-For-You workshops at the Latah Recovery Center have been suspended for a bit, but you can still do the writing prompts on your own. For more information, about the Write for You program, or if you are in recovery and interested in writing coaching, contact Nancy.
